Communal Neighborhood Delegate Boards

The Communal Neighborhood Delegate Boards are coordinating bodies at the local level that act as a link between the municipal government and the Community Neighborhood Boards through their delegates. They can count on the participation of mayors or municipal authorities. Its functions cover a wide range of possible proposals for local development, as well as the control of the implementation of certain policies and investments, and the execution of cultural, sports and social projects. They act as support for municipal management but have no voice or vote in the government.
